Kym Marsh has revealed that she wants to include her Strictly Come Dancing partner Graziano Di Prima “into her family”, describing him as a “little brother”.
The actress, 46, was ‘back in shape’ on Saturday’s live show after her sultry Halloween-inspired rumba to Madonna’s Frozen put her second on the scoreboard.
She escaped another dreaded dance-off on the results show and sails with her professional partner to week seven of the BBC flagship show.

She said Hello! magazine: ‘He has become a little brother to me very quickly.
“Graziano comes from a large family and is very family oriented, so it was important for us to build a friendship and I wanted to integrate him into the family.
“He fits in very well. Everyone loves him.’
The former Hear’Say singer said performing on Strictly has scored points with her youngest daughter, 11-year-old Polly.

“I’m usually quite embarrassing for her. She says, ‘Oh my god, I can’t believe everyone knows who my mother is. So embarrassing,” she said.
“But now I’ve become more interesting. I now get more messages from Polly saying, “Good luck, Mom. I hope you’re well.’
“I think it’s because all her friends talk to her about (strictly) at school.”
Kym, who is married to husband Scott Ratcliff, is also mother to children David, 27, and Emilie, 24.
Sicilian-born Graziano, 28, added: ‘I feel like part of the family. Every week there is a day when Kym invites me home with her and the family cook Italian food and make me feel so welcome.
‘At the end of the day, when we’re done with rehearsals, I’m alone in my hotel. But Kym knows that, so she invites me to come back.”
